Overview


The brand name stands for "air-hotel-adventure" in reference to the company's plans to partner with resorts, casinos and attractions in Reno and Tahoe to “bundle” value-priced vacation packages.[3] The company initially planned to serve each community three times a week with 50-seat Embraer ERJ 145 regional jets. Regular scheduled service began on October 24, 2021, from Reno to Pasco, Washington.

Aha!, together with its parent company ExpressJet, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on August 22, 2022.[4][5] Although Chapter 11 is typically used as protection while a debtor restructures, ExpressJet ceased all flight operations with plans to liquidate its assets.[6]


Destinations


Aha! operated from Reno–Tahoe International Airport to twelve smaller cities along the West Coast of the United States and had planned to expand to up to 20 destinations:[3][7]

Ahá! (oficialmente Aha! Travel Management Company LLC, estilizado aha!) era la marca utilizada por la aerolínea regional ExpressJet para vuelos entre el Aeropuerto Internacional Reno-Tahoe y ciudades a lo largo de la costa oeste de los Estados Unidos. El primer vuelo con pasajeros de la aerolínea fue un chárter operado el 30 de septiembre de 2021 entre el Aeropuerto de Tallahassee y el Aeropuerto de Anderson, SC, exactamente un año después del último vuelo de la aerolínea como operador regional con tarifa por salida. El servicio programado comenzó el 24 de octubre de 2021 con un vuelo de Reno a Pasco / Tri-Cities. El nombre de la marca significa "air-hotel-adventure", ya que la compañía planea asociarse con complejos turísticos, casinos y atracciones en Reno y Tahoe para "agrupar" paquetes de vacaciones con precios económicos.[2]
